Eric Rasmussen scattered six hits and pitched the Padres to a 4-0 victory over the Astros. The Padres picked up a run in the fourth on a double by Dave Winfield and single by Jay Johnstone and added two more in the sixth on an RBI groundout by Winfield and run-scoring single by Johnstone. A sacrifice fly by Gene Richards in the seventh produced the final tally.
